It's a very light teal. Perhaps more like turquoise than teal. If it were a dark teal I'd probably be more in love with it.
This is a stock photo of the bag, but IRL it isn't as green.
2017 resolution - shopping my own bag and wallet collection. Any one else?

Think of it as having character? What kind of leather is it?
I'm motivated!
DH has plans tomorrow afternoon, so I'm going to spend that time taking photos and sending them off for quotes.
I don’t know actually [emoji28] I should find out.
Wondering if H would condition it or something.
It definitely has character. Like it’s been to lots of places lol
After a good year of taking it out, putting my stuff in it, realizing it didn’t work, taking my stuff out of it and picking a different bag, I finally sold it via Fashionphile. I took a big hit on that bag but I simply couldn’t look at it anymore. It was a good lesson for me about small, cute open top bags with tiny center zip compartments. Just didn’t work at all. Which is sad because it was such a pretty little thing.
You could definitely send it to Spa, but you’d probably be without the bag for a long while. I’m not sure they’ll do anything with the canvas part, but they would condition the leather.
I’m fine with the canvas. It’s got two small spots on the back but I can live with that.
It’s the wrinkled leather that kinda gets me more. But their spa does take a long time, and I don’t know how much it’ll cost to spa a pretty inexpensive (to them) bag.
I’ll enjoy it longer, and will send it in when I won’t carry it because it looks too worn.
I went shopping and looked at some Louis Vuitton bags I've been lusting over for the umpteenth time - the Capucines (various colors), the City Steamer (red) and the LV Lock Me II BB (red).
Today was the first day I had clarity.
For me, the first two bags are like the Gucci Dionysus. I love them but not enough to add to my collection. I could change my mind and find some future version stunning. But for now they are off my wish list.
The red LV LM II BB is different. I love that bag more every time I see it. I hesitate because I think the price is crazy for those little bags. But, I bought and use black version all the time. And, I often wish I had it in red. So, it's a strong contender for my 2018 to buy list.
I'm feeling a little better about my process of buying right now. Lots of pausing is helping me avoid mistakes.

I wore my silver microcannage Diorama today. This is absolutely my favorite bag.
I paired it with jeans, a one shoulder multi colored blue top and silver strappy sandals. Simple silver jewelry finished the look.
Again, I'm too lazy to put this in Stylebook.
I wish I had saved stock photos of everything when I bought them. Oh well. My probation closet will let me know what needs to go next year. Lol!
